Valid Vista Home Basic shows invalid after yesterdays update.

Question
-
I really hate to put all this information on the net, where anyone can access it, but, here goes anyway.
First off... I've have to reinstall the OS before. I contacted Dell, and Microsoft, and they sent me the disks. I tried about seven different keys with the assistance of Microsoft Support. At some point, we eventually were able get it installed, and has tested at least twenty times as legitimate. Now, all of a sudden, after yesterdays update of Microsoft Security, it shows invalid, and requires reactivation. Here is the info requested on the sticky.

SLIC HPQOEM SLIC-MPCYour Dell PC has a version of Windows installed that was intended for an HP computer, not a Dell, although the OEM_SLP Key is the correct one for a Dell.Please check the COA Sticker on the back of the PC (or wherever Dell have hidden it) - What is the licensed version and edition of Windows? (it should be Vista/Home Basic).Assuming that it's the correct version, the explanation is almost certainly that if you sent the PC in for repair at some point, it was reinstalled with a pirate copy of Windows rather than the correct one.The Key you need to use is the one that's on the COA Sticker - go to System Properties, and at the bottom of the page, use the Change Product Key button, entering the sticker key, and then activate by phone.HTH

I reinstalled it once with the dvd given to me by Dell, then again with the DVD given to me by Microsoft. Both were genuine disks of Vista Home Basic. The keys were given to me by the Microsoft Support Personell. I guess I'll have to call them, and go through all their keys again. Why would they give me an oem HP key, makes no sense to me. Perhaps that is why so many of them didn't work to begin with. I used siw.exe to determine The Windows Product Key, and the Windows Default Product Key. What's the difference between the two, other than they are not the same characters? I've taken everything out of the mini case that dell had it in, and installed in a different case, changed the video card, installed a new processor, new power supply, and a new water cooling system.Thursday, July 15, 2010 3:54 AM

Hello Legitimate,
First you need to throw out all of the discs you have except for the one that came from Dell. The hacked and cracked discs you have been using have installed some sort of wackiness that really generated some strange lines in the mgadiag report:

The Key you are using is the correct Dell Key - but the software is from an HP (as I said in my earlier post).The Default Key is not applicable in your situation - it can't be activated anyhow.What does the COA sticker have to say about your version of Windows? Have you tried using that key?

If you wanted a High-performance PC you could have got it cheaper by getting a top-of-the-range model in the first place. As it is, I'm fairly certain that the 'official' view would be that you no longer have a PC which met the license terms for an OEM license.I suspect that even if you were to use the Dell disks for a reinstall, you'd end up with a not-genuine message.You may be SOL, unless you buy a legal Retail (or OEM System Builder) pack.
